I remember Peggy from 1955. We both started to work at the A&P on Lexington Avenue. Over the years I would see Peggy at the bank and she was still ‘the same ole Peggy’. Full of life and always with a smile and we would catch up on all the gossip. May God grant her family peace and love during this time. H. Smith
Ron: We always remember your Mom as being a very sweet lady who always had a smile. She is enjoying the reunion with her loved ones in Heaven now.

Dear Ron,
I was so sad to learn of Peggy’s passing. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Your mom was an amazing lady and I’ll never forget the fun times we had working together at WB in Candler…she would get so excited when she’d see you at TCBY because she knew that you’d soon be slipping a peanut butter shake through the drive thru drawer!!! She always kept us laughing. I hope that your own beautiful memories of her will get you through the tough times ahead.
Ray and I deeply regret the lost of Peggy. We share some wonderful grandchildren. You have our prayers.

To the family of Peggy I send my love and prayers to you during this very difficult time in your lives. I know how she loved her family, and know she had a special place in her heart for the Grandchildren and for you, Ron. I know much how she felt because I look up to mine. She always had a smile and a kind word no matter how bad she felt. She was such a beautiful person inside and out.
We grew up near each other, having gone to school together and graduating from Candler High School.
Always hold on to all the good memories. She has set a good example and a good road for you to follow in her foot prints.
May God fill your hearts and minds with love, comfort, strength, and peace in the days and months ahead. She will never be forgotten.
My love and God’s blessings always,
